The SJW is immunized against all dangers: one may call him a liar, censor, hypocrite, profiteer, it all runs off him like water off a raincoat. But call him a SJW and you will be astonished at how he recoils, how injured he is, how he suddenly shrinks back: “I’ve been found out.”

One cannot defend himself against the SJW. He attacks with lightning speed from his position of safety and uses his abilities to crush any attempt at defense.

Quickly he turns the attacker’s charges back on him, and the attacker becomes the liar, the troublemaker, the terrorist. Nothing could be more mistaken than to defend oneself. That is just what the SJW wants. He can invent a new lie every day for the enemy to respond to, and the result is that the enemy spends so much time defending himself that he has no time to do what the SJW really fears: to attack. The accused has become the accuser, and loudly he shoves the accuser into the dock. So it always was in the past when a person or a movement fought the SJW.

One cannot fight the SJW by positive means. He is a negative, and this negative must be erased from the system, or he will forever corrupt it.

One cannot allow the SJW the same means one would give an honest opponent, for he is no honorable opponent. He will use generosity and nobility only to trap his enemy.

The more a person or a movement opposes the SJW, the more valuable it is. If someone is attacked by the SJWs, that is a sure sign of his virtue. He who is not persecuted by the SJWs, or who is praised by them, is useless and dangerous.

What do people think of this KIA post? Any suggested additions or alterations?

Title:

#GamesUnfiltered - Support Japanese games being released without censorship for the western market

Text:

Let's use #GamesUnfiltered to show support for Japanese developers and let them know that their fans just want the full game, not a cut-down bowdlerized version stripped of "vulgar" or "offensive" content. Nor do we want games to be kept from western release due to such concerns about supposed western sensibilities, of course. Games journalists handwringing doesn't represent western customers, only themselves.

Consider this a replacement for the stupid "#1milliongamersstrong" tag someone made - as everyone pointed out not even extremely mainstream groups with media coverage can get those kinds of numbers to participate in their online activity, let alone a relatively niche issue like this, so the name just serves to overshadow the actual point.

>Zombies are so widespread these days that you can’t swing a crowbar without hitting one, and while Necromancer is most certainly unique in its premise it still has you dealing with hordes of undead shambling minions. Which, while a popular genre it’s one that’s way too oversaturated. Which is probably why this title barely scraped past its funding goal in early 2014. And, according to the latest update they had to recently change course with the direction from where they had originally planned.

>From what I could gather of the pitch when Necromancer ran on Kickstarter last year this was supposed to be a real time strategy game or something where both you, as the raiser of undead legions, and the group of heroes hellbent on stopping you could pretty much see the entire battleground. At least that’s what the cursory glance told me when I went to see what it was originally planned as. Things have changed recently, though. Maybe for the better, maybe not.

>According to the update, Necromancer is now going to be a turn-based “double blind” strategy game where neither side knows what the other is going to do until they’re both ready to reveal their plan for the turn. This actually does sound like an interesting gaming concept and one that I’m intrigued about. My only issue is that after months of silence they just decided to drop this news bombshell on backers without notice. The upside is that, while the gameplay itself is getting a major makeover the assets already done can be easily implemented and reused in the new style.

>The fact that this doesn’t affect the budget in any meaningful way also helps to dull the pain that this might cause some of those who pledged to Necromancer. And for those who’d rather get their money back because of the changes to promises made they’re willing to accept refund requests.

>Correction: This report has been amended to remove a figure attributed to the UN that 95% of online abuse was directed at women. Although widely quoted, it has not been possible to verify this figure. Some changes have also been made involving the background to the Gamergate case.

The first one was probably successful because Campbell endorsed the petition and others like mombot got involved, so when the KIA post goes live we should try to get ecelebs involved. Hopefully together with the KIA post that serves as sufficient spark. Even if it doesn't blow up it serves as a tag to use for this sentiment in the future that isn't self-sabotaging.

"I’m a feminist and some of my ideas are radical, but I’m not a “radical feminist,” which occupies its own sub-division of feminist thought. Radical feminists, for all their bloviating and over-intellectualizing about it, really, really just don’t like men. Period. Their philosophy boils down to “Men bad. Women good.” I reject that notion categorically. Unfortunately, the “men bad, women good” meme has taken hold in the public consciousness and people now think that feminists don’t like sex or men, which is bunk.

I’m more a classical liberal feminist: equal pay for equal work, on-site day care, single-payer health coverage, equal opportunity through skills and aptitude instead of gender, generous maternity and paternity leave, and the like. I believe that men and women are both victimized by the patriarchal culture, just in different ways, by different means, for different reasons, and with different results.

I’m well hated in radical feminist circles for the supposed harm I do to women and by the fact that I have sex on camera, both for and with men. I no longer try to talk to them, as I realize radical feminists are just another form of hate group. They really believe that women can’t consent to any sexual encounter and I categorically reject that."

I would run it past some friends too and make sure you remove any identifying information from it. It is better to take time and make sure you are comfortable than to rush. We are really looking forward to it though, don't forget about us anon.

Nah, but I wanna do some quick fact checking, fix the citations I put in, and make sure there isn't anything too autistic or spergy. I think the only thing I can think of in the autistic department is part of the intro that I'll paste here:

"All the while, a narrative was being weaved to paint these gamers as a hateful bunch whose goals are fueled by misogyny and a need to drive women out of the world of video games. In actuality it is, for one of the first times in a long while, a consumer revolt lead by some of the most socially malnormal people out a need for justice and the integrity of their hobby. You can’t make this stuff up."

So, off to finish the few things I need and then take my pants off. Today's been hectic, but school's out.

But I use to believe, years ago. Not in any sort of religion, but more in the idea. The way I saw it, there was a "god" entity, and then we had several "avatars" of that entity, kinda like a middle man. My thinking was that if there was an entity like god, it would be far beyond us, our space, or our experience. The best we would be able to do is conjure up an avatar of the real deal so we could understand it. Also, if god was so great and beyond us, we of course wouldn't be able to prove his existence, like a 2d drawing could never prove our existence.

In hindsight, this is a double edged sword though. If a god was so far beyond us that we could never understand or experience it, why would we believe anyway? I've lost my faith and have replaced it with hatred and cynicism.

>people are surprised when people they don't like know everything about them

We got blamed for this pretty badly, but in hindsight, the real groups that cause harassment on the internet are the ones who encourage people to post personal information all over the internet while making it seem like nothing bad can come from it. In fact, they even encourage it by doing things like encouraging you to use your full name.

Which is kind of fucked, now that I think about it, because SJWs usually want to do things like require full names to post because they think it reduces harassment.

I missed god and the feeling of saftey that comes with believing in an afterlife. Then i realized that i was free from the judgement of an omnipotent authority and that i was able to live my life judging myself according to my own principles and morals.

Then /b/ took it over the same year with a pic of Constanza, they tried to do something in the same vein with a pic of Pee Wee Herman, I don't remember the exact thing but it only lasted a couple of months, this was 4 years ago.

Yeah! One step further!! I lost the screencap of it, but the thing we should be worried about is "harrasment" the UN suffered from the report becoming the basis of the next report. Keep a close eye on them. "Your (crocodile) tears mean more than real evidence ever could".

The literal translation however would be… mmmh well the "simple" one would be "post de merde/posteur de merde", but a more effective one might be "auteur de merde" for shitposter. More literary sense behind it, but hey, I feel it might fit.

>We need some more anons to post shit on 2chan to explain the situation.

Someone should really point out how the localization in America is essentially done for greed rather than any actual moral reason.

Maybe if 2chan knows of it, that info will trickle into the actual game companies, and once the game companies realize they're being fooled into spending more money than they should be, they might actually stop allowing this shit to happen.

You should be pushing it to moderately sized youtubers like alphaomegasin and reviewtechusa. Don't push as a petition but as a sign of solidarity with japanese devs. This need to escape the gamergate sphere of people and fast.

It is done for both reasons. Moral issues made poison a newhalf. Greed made treehouse sap the life from fantasy life. It varies from project to project and team to team. I only trust xseed and noe (kinda) right now.

Kotick was right. Mr. Shitface can't meet a timeline in either scenario and it isn't because he is a perfectionist. The fact these faggots still defend him after he has shit out numerous halfassed titles and wasted as much as he has is utterly absurd. My rage on this issue knows no bounds.

>You be surprised. No one likes to be told that they can't play something.

Yeah. You want people to fight for this, tell them the people who are pushing for censorship think they're too stupid to tell fantasy from reality and that that they think they're too immature to handle the censored content. Spiteful and angry people are motivated people.

I still think putting a number on that hashtag was so goddamn stupid. Goddamn whoever came up with that is a jackass.

>The bulk of my favorite games of the year allowed me to explore the world from unexpected points of view — a teenager with unexplainable powers, a dying tree struggling to come to life or a woman losing her virginity.

Yes, truly the height of our medium, geez gamers why won't you grow up be enlightened.

>clique game, clique game, clique game(?), commercial failure because it was an Xbone exclusive releasing the same time as CoD and Fallout, supposedly a good game, clique game, Nintendo's first actual shooter, never heard of it, never heard of it, Mario Maker

>Lowlight: I have to push my political agenda somewhere, so let me bash a game people already think is shit

Kotick may be a gigantic jew, but if we consider Blizzard's downfall as a result of their own incompetence they aren't that horrible compared to other big publishers like EA, Konami, Capcom before they got their shit together or Ubi.

I mean, I have never really heard of a Activision scandal like the kind of shit EA or Ubi pulls constantly.

>As a journalist, it's harder to use /r/bitcoin for story sources when the comment scores are hidden. I used to use the comments for additional information, but now I don't know which have been highly vetted, and which haven't.

>I'll probably start using Twitter more, because they don't hide the "retweets" and the "likes," which helps. Wish this weren't the case.

>Expecting popular opinion to vet a subject requiring high scientific literacy seems entirely wrong. I'm pretty sure as a "journalist" that's your job, and I don't expect you'll do much better counting retweets. Maybe you should instead attempt to learn something about the subject you are writing about and write an informed article instead of one which jumps from random unsubstantiated opinion to opinion.

>You being unable to use upvotes for journalism is the first good thing to come from this absurd moderator action. Please just do your job and do it well.

But unironically for a journalist using popular posts, upvotes, and twitter likes/retweets to vet sources and opinion is amazing retardation. I thought I've seen it all in gamergate but nope they keep surprising me.

If this is in the context of race/gender/whatever then what does this do? How does this enhance the experience?

I don't give a damn if the characters share my characteristics. I just want a good game with good characters. Who they look like is irrelevant and I find the importance on it be shallow and unironically tokenism

Seriously, people who need to be represented and validated through the media must have some sort of deficiency. I've never had this level of insecurity in my life.

even though nobody is making this argument he's STILL fucking stupid to act as if it's hypocritical to be annoyed that someone is pissing your money away while not caring as much about actual investors who will see return on their investment
